I have worked at University School for many years and have never seen a more supportive and collaborative community. The faculty, staff, parents, students, and alumni love this school and work together to make the school a caring while rigorous educational environment. After working at US, I could never work anywhere else.

We have a sophomore at a highly competitive college who spent his life at US. He is so well prepared academically that he has been able to branch out to take on leadership opportunities at the college. He is proud of his US experience as it enabled him to manages his successes and navigate setbacks. The school is a rare place that is able to build on the many facets of a boy's contribution to the world.

Whereas students in my day were prepared for college and then...
